Fractal dimension of concrete mix gradation: a quantitative parameter for some concrete properties

This study is based upon the fractal feature of ideal Particle Size Distributions (PSD) suggested by numerous concrete mix designs, i.e. ideal PSD can be shown to be equivalent to a power law distributions EC(ϕi) ∝ ϕi− DF, EC(ϕi) is the number of grains of size greater than ϕi, and DF is a nonwhole...
